    Only if it replaces one of your fish you have now. ;) A bunch of snails too.

    I was about to order this CUC. I can take out the spotted cardinal. But wouldn't there be little waste because all of my fish are small?.

    To be honest, my tank doesn't even look overstock. It looks empty.

    Needs more rock. I would buy some of that Florida stuff that is so popular.

    If you put a background on that tank or paint the back wouldnt it stop the sun from getting in? Thus help solve your algae problem? I personally prefer wider and longer tanks than high tanks, I love 40G breeders and 65G breeders, hate the standard 55G.

    fiji base rock from reefcleaners is an excellent choice.

    yeah its because of your dimensions, the tank is so tall that you cant stack the rocks high enough to get an even balance.
